The FAA has issued two TFRs for Valdez, Alaska. The first

06" North/146 degrees 23' 19" West. The second establishes a
25-nm-radius restricted area centered on Valdez/Pioneer Field

they are NOT centered on the same point. Within the 25-nm area,

the Juneau Flight Service prior to entering the area.
"The government clearly has what it considers very real security
concerns during this period of heightened alert status," said AOPA
Senior Vice President Andy Cebula. "Pilots need to be conscious of
that, check notams at the last possible moment before departing,
and be aware that the situation may change while they're
airborne."
